Russia what are you doing

I don't know about you guys, but this proposed trillions (yes, that's plural) of dollars of development seems a little unnecessary. It's interesting to watch them come up with ideas, but nearly 13,000 miles of road over multiple countries seems farfetched.

why the forget aren't they going the other way?
Also it's stupid nonetheless.

a railway so they can send their russian propaganda trams to america

That actually seems like a pretty good idea. Would be a pretty massive project but worth while imo

Imagine if it was a highway tho, where would the cars coming out of america switch from the right side of the road to the left side

the pan american highway is kind of a thing and that goes across poorer countries so I don't see why a railway that goes across richer countries wouldn't be a plausable idea

Meh, if they are going to go through with this, the bridge might collapse over the water and it would be harder to fix

Except, you know, the Pan-American highway doesn't go across the ocean.

Maybe it's bad idea for America but it's definitely not a bad idea for Russia. Well done Russia. Increase number of tourists passing your country.

people have thought about this for years now
not entirely stupid but would be incredibly expensive

XR-7 · March 31, 2015, 10:54:10 AM

Wait where are you guys finding all this railway stuff

Badger · March 31, 2015, 11:01:52 AM

...Because this the Atlantic ocean, not just a road going down the length of the continents. Also, functionally, the Pan-American is a terrible terrible road that is likely to get someone on it killed for carelessness.
